THe one thing that gets me about AOSP is the fact that we can't have a calender widget like sense does. I've used launcher pro which has a very nice calender widget, but it seems not to run very well. Somone please develop a calender widget like the sense or launcher pro one (agenda view reeally).
There are some out there, but don't look nice
Colorize widget has a nice agenda calendar. It's free in the market.

Pure calendar widget.
Try out Jorte. Free on the market. So many features and customizations, you won't be dissappointed.
I use smooth calendar, on android market.
Its free, & the same as sense calendar widget....( little better if you ask me, you can customize the view even more).
and ITS ON CM7
Now I have wimax and my sense calendar widget, NO REASON TO GO BACK TO SENSE NOW>
What about a good scrolling agenda widget. Still hunting.

I use Android Agenda Widget Plus (paid version). Also has a free version. It is scrollable and is very customizable. Plus, I use it with TouchDown for Exchange
Free: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.roflharrison.agenda&feature=search_result
Plus: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.roflharrison.agenda.plus&feature=search_result
Thanks evyerone for the great responses - new apps I've never heard of. they are very promising - but I realized finally why you can't have one like the sense one or the launcher one - the launcher has to support "scrollable" widgets. Any how - as a result - i am using MIUI so there launcher isn't just yet scrollable - so it won't matter.
Thanks guys!!!

is there any way to use HTC Widgets with other Launchers?
I've been wondering this too! I love everything about LauncherPro except the lack of widgets! I never realized how nice HTC's widgets are until they were gone
Nope, and nope!! The HTC widgets are tied into Sense, lose sense, lose the widgets. There are a few in the market that replace the cool ones like the weather and clock. Beautiful Widgets is pretty ill, and very customizable, worth $2 in the app market.

Why can't the HTC widgets (calendar) be used with ADW? I'm not a huge fan of sense but I am a huge fan of the HTC calendar widget.
Does anyone know why the HTC calendar widget cant be used with ADW or is it possible to get the apk? I like the ADW launcher the most but would like to have the HTC widget does any one know if this is possible.
HTC widgets are tied to Sense, can't be done. Get LauncherPro he has sense-like widgets
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Adw doesn't support it...and HTC doesn't want its widgets used with anything other than Sense....I would suggest using Launcher Pro Plus....they have widgets just like the Sense ones.....

Thanks for the info.
There is an app called smooth Calender in the market. It is pretty much identical to the HTC calendar. Widget. And it is customizable.

I'm looking to do the same thing. I would like to see if the windget apk's can be pulled with adb from the stock ROM. Is this a possible way toi get HTC widgets?

Everything "Sense" is tied into the sense framework and isn't usable in a rom that is not sense based. Widgets, apps, etc.
I like the jorte calendar over the sense one. Might give it a view.
Okay, I'm looking for a good 2 row / 4 column homescreen widget. I'm so annoyed and can't find a good one. I have fancy widget and beautiful widget. Any other suggestions?

Whats wrong with Fancy Widget? Or what makes you annoyed?
Simi clock

I like GO Weather for now, although I would prefer if it would launch the clock app when you touch the clock...hopefully they will add it in
I like fancy widget, you'd have to search for it, I don't think its available for download anywhere official. I iseit on my captivate and my aria. it looks and act (mostly) like the stock sense flip clock widget. And you can set it to open specific apps when you touch the weather, calendar or clock...
Edit... OK I'm dumb, I just read right over the part where you said you already have fancy widget...
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
I use fancy widget, but not the one available on the market. I don't like that one. I found an old version floating around on the launcher pro website. Its identical to the sense flip clock (which is why its not available via the market anymore I'm assuming).

Pretty much I'm asking. Is there a launcher that is like adw and launcher pro but is compatible with sense widgets.
I've been looking but not finding.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
There isn't one. Sense, including the widgets, is proprietary to HTC and they are very quick to sue when it comes to their property. There are some skins available that make use of the google apps, calendar and music, that work well with LauncherPro. I've used Pure Music Widget by francois Deslanders and it has a nice transparent 4x4 widget.
Sad face...
Hmm I see the issue. No one would wanna do that work for free. Thx for quick response.

I've seen and tried some of the things you pointed out. But I guess I'm really just trying to make use of my sense rom. I'm using launcher pro and I love it but not being able to you the weather widget has always bugged me.

Beautiful Widgets has almost the exact same weather/clock widget as HTC, plus hundred of others to choose from. Only problem I ever had with it is it gets my location wrong sometimes.
Thx I've looked into beautiful widgets but I'm talking about the full screen weather widget the one with the forcast.
The reason I was asking was mainly because of the resizing of widgets in these launchers.

GO Weather maybe?

Yeah it only has a 4x1 weather widget which kind of sucks. Launcher Pro does allow resizing but it just keeps the same 4x1 widget and enlarges it to about 4x2 and it doesn't look good.
Cool so I just got done trying out the go weather app. Its not bad but I only really like it because of the live wallpaper.
But for that same reason It's not what I'm looking for. I do appreciate the idea. Oh well still looking.
I guess what I'm really looking for is that sense 4x4 forcast widget on one of my launcher pro screens. (I know not possible lol)

Hopefully they release their Sense SDK soon like they said they would.
Palmary Weather Pro is very close. I think it's a buck or 2 in the market. I love it.

I agree. I love the 1x4 widget, runs nicely along the left side of my center home screen
